How to Treat Slnstroke.

A sudden prostration of the nervous
system resulting from extreme heat is
commonly called sunstroke. 1t is a
mistake, however, to suppose that ex-
posure to the suns rays is necessary to
produce the prostration, for workmen
who are exposed all day to the scorch-
ing sun do not have sunstrol.e as often
as persons of selentary habits, who
walk on the shady side OF the street.
The usual symptoms indicating an
attack of sunstroke are full, heavy
feeling in the head, dizziness, ringing
in the ears, deranged vision, faintness,
and difficult breathing; but sometimes
the patient falls unconscious without
any OF these symptoms being present,
and without the slightest warning. In
severe cases death may ensue in few
hours. Those who recover from an at.
tack do so slowly, and continue to be
greatly prostrated for some time after,
dizziness and faintness coming on after
the slightest mental effort, while the
full, distressed feeling in the head con.
tinues for months afterward.
Sunstroke is best avoided by immedi-
ately ceasing all mental and physical
effort as soon Us the first SYMPTOMS of
prostration are felt and above all by
avoiding the drinking of ice-water when
overheated. The head should be pro-
tected by sunshade, and care taken to
keep the digestive organs healthy by
using light food. When an attack oc.
ours the patient should be removed to
a cool place and placed in recumbent
position, cold water or bags should
be applied to the head, and mustard
paste, capsicum, or other stimulauts to
the extremities and over the stomach.
Hartshorn should be held to the nose,
and as soon as the patient can swallow,
al ounce of brandy, with ten drops of
essence of ginger, should be swallowed.
When Improvement begins the patient
should be kept as quiet as possible, and
all exposure to heat avoided for the
balance of the summer. Home

Much complaint has been made in
consequence of the introduction of a
new ticket system on overland roads to
California, says San Francisco journal.
The trouble all arises from the fact
that the ticket given at the Missouri
River by the overland agents contains
what is called punch photograph" Of
the holder. This is supposed to be a
complete description of the passenger.
Along the margin of the ticket is
printed, in straight column, the fol-
lowing words in small, black type:
Male-Female.
Slim-Medium--Stout.
Young-Middle-aged-
Eye. Light--Dark.
Hair. Light-Dark.
Beard. Mustache = Chin = Side
None.
The passenger is photographed on
the ticket bearing his signature by
punching out all the words that are not
descriptive of him. If for male, the
word female" is cut out by the punch
if he is slim, the words medium" and
stout" are punched; if his eyes are
light, the word clark" is stricken out;
and if he wears no beard, the word
none" is left standing: while "mus-
tache," !" "chin, and "side" are punched.
Now, it is readily seen how train
agent passing hurriedly through a
crowded car is likely to make errors in
describing his passengers on tickets,
and SO far from being a photograph OF
the holder, the marginal sketch often
becomes rank carricature. Even
when the punch-marks faithfully por.
tray the features and figure, the female
passenger cannot always preserve good
temper on looking at the picture drawn
for her. A well-developed lady of un.
certain age is not likely to consider it a
compliment to be labeled in cold type
as "stout" and elderly"

at Hincaster Junction, about five miles

AS the train got near the junction the
down distant signal, which was to

suring safety the train was brought to
standstill. On making an inspection
of the signal lamp it was found to con-

number having had the effect of put
ting out the lamp, which the signalman
was unable to light again. The bees
had evidently been attracted by the
light.
